SPECIAL DISCOUNT for "long weekend" or longer stays! We have a two-night minimum, but If you stay a third night, I can discount $300 off the total. If you stay a fourth night, I can discount $500. (This must be done manually, so message me your dates, and I can send a custom price for you to accept.)
Patten's Landing is a five-bedroom log home that sleeps 10 (12, if a couple of people sleep on the large sectional sofa) on almost 100 acres of forested land surrounded by the Meramec River and its tributaries, the Huzzah and Courtois Creeks. Built in 1942, the home has been lovingly updated over the last several years, with a fully-furnished modern kitchen, flagstone patio with firepit, and screened porch to watch the birds, butterflies, and occasional deer or wild turkey wander by. Enjoy the peace and quiet as you relax, walk through the woods, or go splash in the river! We have a swing set and outdoor games for the kids as well, and just added a large TV over the mantel with streaming services, and an electric fireplace insert that can be used year round. (YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfDkcw-zKCXPOAA0g1T4bMQ).
(NOTE: While we are mostly surrounded by streams, it is a 5-10 minute walk from the cabin downhill on a wooded path to reach the beach area, as the cabin sits on a bluff.)
Patten's Landing is also a magical location for a small wedding, holiday celebration, family reunion, or other event! Catering and set-up can be arranged.
The property is also fantastic in the fall, when the colors change. There are lots of hiking trails in the vicinity, as well as the paths on the property. And it's magical in the winter with snow! (see on YouTube: https://youtu.be/zTn6d8N-pfI)
In warmer weather, there are several outfitters nearby who can provide you with a canoe, raft, or kayak and drive you to a choice of locations to put into the river for a fun adventure! There are also lots of local attractions to see: Onondaga Cave, Maramec Spring, and more! See more information at www.pattenslanding.com.
